Could it now be include please. Here it is. "I was truly shocked to read about graves in Goa being allocated on a caste basis. What a disgrace! I am sure you all remember this quote :- "Sceptre and crown must tumble down, And in the dust be equal made"
I have been following some of Cornel's posts on this subject with interest. Speaking personally, I find the whole question of caste distinction abhorrent, and could never subscribe to something so repugnant. How can we honestly talk about being discriminated against in, say the U.K. or U.S.A. when we so blatantly discriminate against our own?? I sincerely hope we can put an end to this disgraceful practice. Mervyn Maciel
